Nocturnal March

Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult's song 'Nocturnal March' is a vivid and intense portrayal of an apocalyptic scenario, where chaos and destruction reign supreme. The lyrics paint a picture of a world on the brink of collapse, with natural and supernatural forces converging to bring about the end of days. The imagery of 'black winged squadrons' and 'frostic wind' evokes a sense of dread and foreboding, as if the very elements of nature are conspiring against humanity.

The song's narrative suggests a cyclical nature of destruction and rebirth, with the 'source of infinity' pouring out and the 'forces of gravity' beginning to pour out. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for the inevitable cycles of creation and destruction that govern the universe. The 'nocturnal march' itself can be seen as a symbol of this relentless, unstoppable force, moving forward with a grim determination.

The use of German phrases like 'Mit derben äxten gegen den himmel erhoben' adds a layer of cultural depth to the song, invoking imagery of ancient warriors and battles. This, combined with the references to hurricanes, earthquakes, and plagues, creates a rich tapestry of apocalyptic visions. The song ultimately serves as a reminder of the fragility of human existence and the power of nature and the cosmos to bring about our downfall. The 'nocturnal march' is both a literal and metaphorical journey through darkness, chaos, and ultimately, the end of all things.
